Within the feasibility study, the following typically are addressed:
• Define a time frame for the implementation of the required
solution.
• Determine an optimum alternative risk-based solution for
meeting business needs and general information resource
requirements (e.g., whether to develop or acquire a system),
Information resources, as defined in COBIT in the Acquire
and Implement (AI) domain, include people, applications,
technology, facilities and data organized and managed through
a given set of IT "natural" processes. Such processes can easily
be mapped to SDLC and, with some more effort, to rapid
application development (RAD).
• Determine whether an existing system can correct the situation
with slight or no modification (e.g., workaround).
• Determine whether a vendor product offers a solution to the
problem.
• Determine the approximate cost to develop the system to correct
the situation.
• Determine whether the solution fits the business strategy.
